Something relating to catfish and hair balls, I suspect.

Or Yordles are so cheerful they don't ever make deals with demons.

~~because they are the demons~~ Teemo

Except Veigar

His ego may be so massive he just outright swings in the opposite direction, but pretty much I can't see him making demon deals either.

They might be too pure for him to corrupt.

Thats why Veigar and Amumu aren't listed(if amumu is a yordle),because both have been broken by their experiences.

I remember that someone from riot also said that all yordles met him once,so maybe there is a more direct relation.

Or perhaps them being pretty pure hearted and jolly makes their despair all the more delectable for a being like Tahm.

Given how Yordles are these friendly community driven people, Tahm's greed and selfishness might just rub them the wrong way.

Alternatively, consider for a moment we only know Tahm Kench from the perspective of his Bilgewater form. As we've seen with the Shadow Isles champs with Bloodmoon skins, different cultures see these monsters of the world differently. It's almost a certainty that the way Tahm Kench appears in Yordle folklore is very different from the story we've heard.

Consider...he's in the stained glass of Demacia's cathedral.

Amumu is not listed

This means that Riot no longer treats him as a yordle?

EDIT: I just noticed that Veigar isn't listed either... So maybe Amumu is still a yordle, and the fact that he isn't listed may not mean much since Veigar isn't listed, and he is clearly a yordle. However, Veigar is evil, which maybe is the reason why he isn't listed.

the short story Greed and Tears pretty much confirms Amumu isn't a yordle anymore. There's a lighthearted nod towards his previous Yordle-status in it, though - "He's real, but he isn't a boy," said another. "He's a yordle!".

It's actually funny, because in early beta he wasn't a yordle; he was a human child originally!

Well, he can be a yordle boy.... the term boy and child are not exclusive for humans.

Don't you think the storyteller would've mentioned it, to his human audience, if everyone or anyone pictured in the tomb was a yordle, or mention that there was a yordle involved at any point, if there was? Surely it'd be far-fetched for him to neglect to mention that.
